Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul made many big records in the Perth Test with their partnership of 172 runs. For the first time in 38 years, Indian openers have made an opening partnership of more than 170 runs in Australia. Rahul and Jaiswal have done this after Sunil Gavaskar and Srikanth.

For the fourth time in Australia, both India’s openers scored half-centuries.
This is the fourth time this has happened in Australia when both India’s openers have scored half-centuries. Sunil Gavaskar and Chetan Chauhan first did this in 1981. Then Gavaskar had played an inning of 70 runs and Chauhan had played an inning of 85 runs in Melbourne.
After this, the pair of Sunil Gavaskar and Kris Srikkanth did this in Adelaide in 1985. Then Gavaskar had played an inning of 166 runs and Srikanth had played an inning of 51 runs.
In 1986, the pair of Sunil Gavaskar and Kris Srikkanth created history in Sydney. Then both of them had scored centuries. Gavaskar played an inning of 172 runs and Srikanth played an inning of 116 runs.
Now KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal have become the fourth Indian openers to score half-centuries in Australia. However, both are still unbeaten. In such a situation, this pair can make many more records in its name.
